Vehicle routing problems (VRPs) are among the most studied problems in operations
research. Nowadays, the leading exact algorithms for solving many classes of VRPs are …

Building on the work of Gendreau et al.(Eur J Oper Res 88 (1): 3–12; 1996), we review the
past 20 years of scientific literature on stochastic vehicle routing problems. The numerous …

Online vehicle routing is an important task of the modern transportation service provider.
Contributed by the ever-increasing real-time demand on the transportation system …

Compared with conventional freight vehicles, electric freight vehicles create less local
pollution and are thus generally perceived as a more sustainable means of goods …

The emerging autonomous electric vehicles have facilitated the implementation of the
shared autonomous electric vehicle (SAEV) service. In real-life applications, the operations …

Stochastic vehicle routing, which deals with routing problems in which some of the key
problem parameters are not known with certainty, has been an active, but fairly small …

Due to an increase in customer-oriented service strategies designed to meet more complex
and exacting customer requirements, meeting a scheduled time window has become an …

In this paper, we consider the Electric-Vehicle Routing Problem (EVRP) with nonlinear
charging time. Due to their limited travel ranges, electric vehicles have to be recharged …

The improved unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV, or drone) delivery systems allow an
unattended truck to pair two or more drones to accelerate delivery. Although such systems …

We study same-day delivery systems by formulating the dynamic dispatch waves problem
(DDWP), which models a depot where delivery requests arrive dynamically throughout a …
